January 10th, 1928 


Mr. MircHett KENNERLEY, 
President, The Anderson Galleries, 
Park Avenue and Fifty-ninth Street, 
New York, N. Y. 


My pear Mr. Kenneriury :-— 


I have your letter of the 7th in which you state that my collection is 
catalogued and the manuscript ready for the printer. As I wrote you 
previously, the reason that I am disposing of my collection by auction 
is that I have sold my estate at Mt. Airy. I also feel that with your 
method, a greater number of collectors will have the opportunity to 
enjoy the pleasures of sclection—a pleasure I enjoyed during the past 
twenty years. 


Needless to say, it is with genuine regret that I part with my things, 
and still it gives me a certain amount of pride to think of the many 
rare items which could not be secured at first hand to-day, as was pos- 
sible when I was an active buyer. 


I think that it might be propitious to add a few words at the beginning 
of the catalogue addressed, first, to the friends who have assisted me 
in securing many of the items and, second, to the various future pos- 
sessors of these pieces, stating the general attitude which prompted the 
assemblage. 


In 1905, in building my present homestead I considered the exterior 
architecture, but spent more time in the arrangement of the interior. 
The workmanship of the more elaborate cabinet makers of the Colonial 
period together with the fine old English furnishings adapted them- 
selves admirably to this setting. My collection was formed from a 
standpoint of utility and comfort as well as for its rarity and artistic 
merit. ‘The designs of Sheraton, Chippendale and the earlier English 
craftsmen, whether executed by the masters themselves or interpreted 
by the early American cabinet makers, are a representative example of 
the origin of “comfort at home”, so well defined by our ancestry and 
more in favor with each passing generation. 


Thanking you for your efforts in my behalf, 


(Signed) Aprien F. WELLENS
